we learned, laughed, loved, cried, and experienced more then ever imagined this last year and we couldn't have asked for anything more. we are so blessed and have such wonderful friends and family to share our lives with, especially at this time. we've now been married for 6 months, crazy to think it's been that long but it's flown by and i already can't believe how much our love has increased and changed since July! Can't wait to see what 2011 brings, more on that later.
